[@claybyrd4943]

Why didn't he just go get a ring from Zales instead of getting one from a guy in what sounds like a broom closet with a laptop

[@vannem2688]

Mine was from Kay’s and it’s perfect!

[@DWilliam1]

Well, Zales is a ripoff. But a diamond directly then go to a jeweler, cheaper and you get a much better product.

What?? The plaintiff knew all along he was a middle-man. JJ is doing a lot of dental work here to get to the truth.

[@Alphaphotographer]

The jeweler who actually isn't a jeweler, doesn't make anything but money off someone else's craftsmanship.

He’s a middle man which is perfectly legit.

Yup. ​@@dinahbrown902

It's legit but he should call himself a broker, he's not a jeweller.

[@stephan6372]

[@benzamg32m68]

That's how it's done now for dummies. Return to people actually meeting and talking. Internet crap sucks.

[@mrich9654]

Defendant needs to get a real job. He brings zero value to the table.

[@ohger1]

Not true about brokers. A broker can save you a ton of money over a retail shop and get you a better quality of stone at the same time. This guy? Don't know the deal with him, but brokers are legit in the same way as buying a lawn mower from a retail store - they don't make them either.

[@trinity72gp]

[@amb817]

[@MaryleeUSA]

Restock a ring that never existed 😂

[@ohger1]

We don't know all the details because it seems there's no part 3, but the broker could have bought and paid for the stone on good faith which was shipped to him, and had to return it. If the buyer changed his mind, he's entitled to a restocking fee. If the broker went past the date agreed upon or otherwise didn't live up to the agreed deal, he should pound sand. My brother used to know a broker in NY and he saved us a ton of money on rare jewels.

Yeah, this is just as a figured. He did the build-a-bear workshop kind of thing on an engagement ring, and once he paid the money, it was never delivered. I think Mr. Middleman makes his money on restocking fees for ghost jewelry.

[@deborahasher176]

DeBeers put together an excellent marketing plan in order to con the public into thinking diamonds are valuable. Unless it's an extremely large or colored diamond they are a dime a dozen.

[@Rantsack]

I agree. Ceritifed GIA diamond grader myself. They lie to the people and the people believe that diamonds are rare, which they are not, only the size and color.

He might be a crook, or he might be entitled to the restocking fee if he bought and paid for the stone on good faith and the buyer backed out. If the broker is the one who screwed up, tough noogies for him. No part 3..

I would NEVER buy anything from some middle man no matter what it is!!!

[@antihistamine]

I designed and had my ring custom made through a middleman. I had a paper trail including the drawing I made, and the render they produced, and a picture of the ring. He was a pain to work with, but he eventually got it done and shipped to me. The plaintiff is a little foolish. How do you not have a drawing or render of the ring you're paying for?... And the defendant is definitely taking advantage of the plaintiff's common sense.

I bought my wife's 75 point diamond from a broker and he had it set into a traditional 18K engagement setting. Took two weeks to get. Saved at least half over a retail store. That was over 40 years ago. When she had it cleaned and the fitting checked a couple of years ago, the jeweler whistled because it was nearly flawless.

“I had an idea what my fiancé wanted … “ There’s that W word. I want this to make me happy. I want that to make me happy. I want, I want, I want things to make me happy. In this case, expensive things. Tsk tsk tsk. You can’t buy happiness. It doesn’t exist on a store shelf, or on a showroom floor or in a parking lot. Happiness is a choice that you make everyday about everything in your life: “We live in a shack, but we have a roof over our heads and that makes us happy.” “The weather is beautiful and I’m happy about that.” “My wife loves me for who I am and I couldn’t be happier about that.” “This ring is plain and the stone is small, but my husband bought it for me and that makes me happy.” Such a simple fact, and yet so difficult to fathom.
